I was Idle and Cool Chapter 37: was a tyrant
The egret and the green sparrow are still a little lost at the moment.
The existence of Gu Juefei is like a **** in the sky to these two ordinary maids, but she just stood in front of them so ordinary, and she was still in a mess.
The most important thing is...
My wife actually came here with Young Master Gu.
When did they get together?
What happened outside when they went in to pick up Lord Lu?
Why do you think Eldest Young Master Gu looks at his wife so delicately?
My heart was confused for a while.
It's just that when they raised their eyes, they saw Lu Jinxi leaning on the pillow at the moment.
The sound of the wheel running over the ground is particularly clear.
They lowered their eyes, and all they could see was Lu Jinxi's fingers on the coffee table. They were extremely white, and seemed to be tapping again and again with some unknown rhythm...
The Lu Mansion is also east of the inner city, but in the other direction.
The carriage of the General's Mansion first went to the entrance of the Lu Mansion together with the General's Mansion. At this time, Lu Jinxi came down and sent Lu Jiuling in.
It's just getting late.
Lu Jinxi is now a married daughter, and she doesn't know anything about the Lu Mansion for the time being, so she didn't go in. She only left a message to bring the children back for two days.
After this, I returned to the carriage, all the way back to the General's Mansion.
It's a coincidence.
Their carriage entered the side door with the front foot and parked in the open space at the door, with the sound of hooves coming from the rear foot.
There are a few lanterns hanging around. Lu Jinxi just held the hand of the egret and got off the carriage when she heard the sound and looked back.
It was a tall horse with a tall man on its back.
It's late and the light is dim.
Lu Jinxi didn't know what the person looked like, but saw him wearing a pair of soap boots and wearing a dark blue outfit with narrow cuffs, which was good for movement.
As soon as the man came in and saw the carriage in front of him, he took the reins and called out "Uh".
The young people who were waiting around recognized him and immediately greeted him, helping him hold the horse: "Third Master, you are back, and when the third grandmother came back, she asked about your family. Where did you go? The little ones are not easy to answer..."
Third Master...
Xue Kuang's younger brother, Xue Rin? ?
He is also the only one who is still alive among several direct descendants of the long house?
Lu Jinxi immediately judged it.
"The third grandma has come back?"
Xue Rinren was on the horse, and while asking, he turned over and got off the horse.
The little boy who led the horse nodded his head: "I'm back, I just told the little ones to guard here. I'm afraid that it will be dark on your way back, so I'll ask you to light a lantern."
When Xue Rin heard this, a smile appeared on her face.
Because others dismounted, the little ones put on lanterns.
So, Lu Jinxi finally saw him clearly.
A face that is actually quite serious, with very handsome features, a high and straight nose, and strong eyebrows.
Just this pair of eyes, a little weaker.
Lack of sharpness, lack of sharpness, hiding a little gentleness, and a faint sense of indecision.
Especially the look on this face...
It doesn't look like a general at all.
At this moment, Xue Rin had also seen Lu Jinxi in front of him, slightly stunned, a bit of hesitation flashed across her face, and she became a little shy when she remembered something.
However, he hurried forward and greeted Lu Jinxi respectfully.
"Meet the second sister-in-law."
Lu Jinxi had heard of him.
The third master, the direct descendant of the eldest house, seems to be somewhat mediocre in ability, which is not in line with the sharpness shown by the word "Rin" in his name.
Right now, there are six out of twenty, reluctantly relying on the shadow of the family, to find an errand in Beijing.
Among the three brothers, he was the least picky.
Of course, both excellent ones are dead.
Seeing the other party saluting, Lu Jinxi saw his expression again, and roughly judged the character of this third master Rin, but did not come to a conclusion.
She also bowed slightly, and her words were very polite: "It's all a family, the third master doesn't need to be so polite."
"Yes, Mrs. Xie."
Xue Rin just got up, but the expression on her face made it even more unnatural.
He has been married to Wei Xian for four years.
He actually doesn't know the reason why this noble daughter of the Taifu's mansion married him out of thin air, but he just feels that he is not worthy of Wei Xian's background at all.
So, to Wei Xian, he is almost obedient.
But the more so, the more frightened and even a little guilty he felt in his heart after knowing what she had done over the years.
Just because the position of Xiaoqi School is not easy, there are always a lot of things to be busy with, so he doesn't have much time in the mansion, let alone meeting Lu Jinxi.
Intentionally or not, he is also avoiding such meetings.
Today, Kadudu accidentally bumped into each other.
So, what he heard at the birthday banquet in the Taishifu today came to his mind.
Xue Rin stood not far in front of Lu Jinxi, opened her mouth, and seemed to want to say something.
Lu Jinxi originally wanted to order someone to send Xue Rin back, but when she saw this, she stopped temporarily, with a warm smile on her face, and asked, "Is there something wrong with the third master?"
"It's not a problem..."
Xue Rin rarely interacts with women, let alone the second sister-in-law who had little contact with her before.
Because of the guilt in his heart, he was a little more nervous than usual, and he stumbled when speaking.
"Due to the car and horse, Xian'er offended the second sister-in-law a lot this morning. I only heard about it at the birthday banquet. Xian'er... she's not very sensible, and she can't be bothered with the second sister-in-law. Second sister-in-law is generous and generous, don't bother with her."
Xue Rin lowered her head, a little apprehensive.
He saw that Wei Xian had been shriveled a few times, and he heard that after the second sister-in-law became ill, things had changed a bit. Now that he saw that this was the case, he didn't really expect Lu Jinxi's reaction.
So, after he finished speaking, he didn't let out a sigh of relief, but instead his heart hung up.
The dragon has nine sons, each of which is different.
Man from the same family may not necessarily be the same. There are two elder brothers Zhuyu in front, unfortunately in front, mediocre is not necessarily a bad thing.
Lu Jinxi didn't feel bad about him.
As for this morning...
The corners of her lips curved, and she smiled slightly: "Third Master has been worrying too much. It wasn't a big deal this morning, but it just wasn't coordinated for a while. It's me who made my younger brother and sister suffer a little bit of grievance. I should be right. Just don't stay. At this moment, she may be sulking in the house. It's not early, you should go back quickly."
Xue Rin was a little stunned when she heard what she said.
Just...
Second sister-in-law is still so easy to talk, except for the calmness in the words and expressions, the change is not very big.
Soft.
Be kind.
Seeing that Xue Rin didn't care about her, she was already a little happy, and now she bowed again: "Then Xue Rin will leave first, and please take care of the second sister-in-law along the way."
"Hmm."
Lu Jinxi complied, and then instructed the little ones serving there: "Send the third master back on the way, be careful."
At this time, the little ones put up the lanterns, showed Xue Rin the way, hugged him a few steps around, and then went west.
Lu Jinxi lives in the East Courtyard and is not with him.
Standing on the spot, she slowly frowned when she saw the person disappear.
Egret is very happy at this moment: "It's obvious that the third grandmother sent someone to pick up the third master, and you still said such a thing. Going back and passing back those broken mouths, you might be angry with her. "
When I looked up, I saw Lu Jinxi's expression.
She was stunned for a moment and asked in doubt, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, just remembering something..."
Lu Jinxi took Qingque's hand next to her and turned around, thinking about it in her heart.
One was curious about why Wei Xian chose Xue Rin and married into the Xue family four years ago.
Seeing Xue Rin now, is this temperament Wei Xian likes?
It doesn't seem to make much sense either, and there is a lot of confusion.
Two...
She remembered talking to Wei Xian before going out today. They talked about the sister-in-law He Shi, Wei Xian dismissed the He Shi, but when the conversation changed, it was said that the He Shi thought of Sister Lang.
This has to make Lu Jinxi suspicious.
At that time, she wanted to ask again, but because of the carriage, the conversation had to be interrupted.
Sister Lang's temper tantrums recently, and it's not a secret in the house.
Because of busy affairs a few days ago, she went to a banquet today, so she kept this matter on hold, and only observed Sister Lang's situation and did not deal with it.
But Wei Xian's previous words seemed to reveal something faintly.
It seems like...
Sister Lang's temper tantrum seems to be related to the He family.
This is just Lu Jinxi's intuition.
I don't know if it was because she had a bad first impression of the He family that caused this "illusion", but Wei Xian obviously should know something.
She thought about it, she will be free tomorrow, she should find a time to visit Wei Xian, and she has to chat with Sister Lang.
Thinking like this, the East Court is already in front of you.
Because she sent Lu Jiuling back to the mansion halfway, it was delayed for a while. It was very late. She asked a few of the maids who stayed in the mansion to take care of her, and she was relieved when she learned that the children had already slept.
At the birthday banquet, I was either listening to those noble ladies talking about three aunts and six grandmothers, or sitting there watching a play and eating. Actually, there was not much that she was interested in.
Except for Gu Juefei, who cheered her up a little, the rest is really boring.
After a long day, Lu Jinxi was already tired.
As soon as people entered the door and sat in front of the dressing table, she took off all the head and face jewelry, and also took off the white jade beads on the forehead, and threw them back into the jewelry box.
"Ask someone to get hot water and take a shower for a while. I'm really tired today, so I'll take a rest early."
"Yes."
The egret responded and went to show it.
Qing Que stayed behind, helping Lu Jinxi to loosen the crescent moon bun, her black hair like a waterfall, spread all over her shoulders, looking extremely smooth.
She looked at Lu Jinxi's closed eyes in her glasses, considered it for a while, and then opened her mouth.
"When I just came back, the slave received a message from Yin Liu'er."
"He said he hasn't replied yet, but is eager to see you."
"One is to apologize to you face to face for what happened last time; the other is because the Falcon Battalion will start recruiting troops in just a few days. You haven't replied to him for a long time, and he has no idea."
"Didn't know you..."
Because Chuan Lai has no memory of Lu's, Lu Jinxi didn't ask much after knowing about Yin Liu'er.
Now that she's heard Qingque's words, she's only recollected.
So it was.
Yin Liu'er works for the Lu family not because he is the Lu family's confidant, but only because he has requests from the Lu family.
On Changshun Street earlier, she had seen the infantry Longzi Battalion and Huzi Battalion, both soldiers who had been withdrawn from the border.
"Dragon Tiger" is a fierce beast, "Falcon" is a kind of fierce bird.
Listening to this name, although it doesn't seem to be like the dragon character camp and the tiger character camp, I'm afraid it's not very far from each other. It should be a kind of organization in the army.
The Lu family is the wife of the general, and Yin Liu'er should have taken a fancy to this.
But...
Lu Jinxi slowly opened her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror thoughtfully: With Lu's character, would she help Yin Liuer?
She really doesn't know.
"He did things for me, and now he has made mistakes, but he doesn't shirk and dares to admit it."
"Half a man."
"Tomorrow, you will find out what's going on in the Falcon Camp for me. I'll just find a gap in the next few days. I'll do it as soon as I see him."
As for not being able to do it, then there is no other way, only think of other compensation methods.
Lu Jinxi was still very curious about this little gangster who had never met before.
She gave Qing Que an affirmative answer, and Qing Que had a bottom line in her heart.
After a while, Egret settled on the matter of bathing. Lu Jinxi threw herself into the tub to take a bath, washed cleanly, and then retreated into the bed.
A pond of green lotuses is embroidered on the top of the bunk bed, waiting for the moon to bloom, which is quite plain. The candlesticks lit in the room were very bright, and they were blown out one by one by the blue birds, and then gradually became dark.
Because the Lu family burns sandalwood all year round, there is a faint smell of Buddha sandalwood in this room.
Lu Jinxi originally followed a few big bosses, and after playing these games, he was quite familiar with the taste.
But I smell it today, and I don't know why, but it's hard to meditate.
Too boring.
Once I'm free, I feel like I'm not right in every bone. If it wasn't for the chance encounter with Gu Juefei at night, and a victory against the thousand-year-old painted skin demon, and a little sense of accomplishment, this day could almost be classified as "lack of goodness".
Is this the life of an ancient woman?
Days inside the house.
It's hard to die.
Lu Jinxi's head rested on the pillow, half-curled, lying with her back to the outside. All the messy thoughts flashed through his mind.
It was probably too busy during the day, and when she fell asleep, she had a dream.
Vaguely high-rise buildings, suits and leather shoes.
The streets of Nasdaq are full of people.
On the gleaming floor of the Condé Nast building, the sound of men's leather shoes and women's high heels reverberated everywhere, some hastily, some slowly, like an undulating rhythm.
That day, she was in the spotlight.
"When..."
In the dream, there is a faint chiming of the bell.
Lu Jinxi finally opened her eyes, but for a while she couldn't tell who she was or where she was.
What you see is darkness.
After a while, she could distinguish the blurred outline of the bed tent, and when she recognized that this was the Lu family's house, she smiled silently.
The tense body slowly relaxed.
Lu Jinxi pressed her forehead and sat up slowly. She was no longer sleepy, only the bell rang in her dream.
In fact, at that moment, she thought she had succeeded.
As the co-founder of the company, she came to the fore, killing one of the core founders one after another, and making up another one. She is a veritable "tyrant".
But the arm can't break the thigh.
The power of capital is always a nightmare for entrepreneurs.
Just one month after the Nasdaq rang, she was siphoned off by capital, swept out of the house, and lost the career she devoted herself to.
Nothing at all.
So poor that only money is left.
But all the financial news said that she was brave to retreat, and she cashed out and left immediately.
No one believes that this woman who has been fighting with people for many years in the field of interests will love her career more than her money.
In retrospect, Lu Jinxi didn't believe it.
Leaning on the head of the bed, she rubbed the center of her eyebrows.
If Mr. Lu didn't die and was fortunate enough to wear it on her body, apart from enemies all over the ground and his predecessors all over the street, he would not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life. You can also become a famous investor.
Of course, if she encounters someone who cheats money and sex, it's not something she can manage.
Thinking of this, Lu Jinxi couldn't help laughing.
This is all bullshit.
She sat for so long, and she became more and more awake. She turned her head and saw that the window paper sandwiched by the carved window was a little frosty white.
The moon is in the middle of the sky.
I felt a little emotional and a little confused for a while.
Lu Jin unknowingly got out of the bed, took advantage of the light reflected by the window paper, put on clothes, and took the hanging ferret fur cape and wrapped it around herself.
She didn't disturb the sleeping egret outside and went out by herself.
It's still early spring.
It wasn't time for the insects and birds to move, so it seemed quiet everywhere.
The breeze is blowing, and the moon is in the sky.
The ground is really covered with a layer of silver frost by the moonlight, the eaves of the courtyard are bent, hooking the same half-curved moon, and there are a few begonia trees planted outside the wall, but some buds bloom under the moon, secretly bright .
Lu Jinxi looked up, walked out from under the porch, went down the steps, stepped on the slate, gently pulled the door bolt, opened a small crack, and came out.
It was only in the middle of the night, and the originally budding Begonia actually opened most of the time.
In the yard, only a few are visible. When I stood outside, I found that it was open in a large area, pressing down on the branches, very fresh.
Some of the tender pink petals are as white as snow under the moonlight.
Blossoms can be folded straight and must be folded...
Thinking of this sentence, she also attached to Fengya, walked up, picked the one facing outwards and folded it.
"Pop."
A soft click.
In this silent night, it is extraordinarily clear.
At that moment, Lu Jinxi felt a light in the corner of his left eye, and shook it.
She frowned suddenly, with a bit of alertness, and looked to the left: It's so late, besides her, who has the guts to walk outside?
On the left is the passage between the courtyards.
A figure stood at the opening, holding a lantern in his hand, looking a little thin, tall, and standing slightly strange.
Just because the lantern light shines from below, it's not very clear.
But Lu Jinxi recognized it immediately.
Is it him?
Because there are no lights in the front of the East Courtyard, only the moonlight shines in the dark, so it is not very clear. He probably heard a sound here, so he stopped and looked at it.
That begonia is already in Lu Jinxi's hands.
About only a foot long, there are seven or eight flowers on the top, most of them are open or half open, only two or three are still flower buds.
No scent.
Because Begonia has no fragrance.
She thought of this irrelevant sentence for no reason in her mind, and then, after thinking for a while, she walked directly over there.
As you get closer, the face of the crown becomes clear.
Presumably saw her and knew he was recognized, so he stood still.
Lu Jinxi smelled a medicinal odor.
Stopping at the front of the road, her brows were slightly raised, and her voice was as light as the fragrance of Begonia: "In the middle of the night, the eldest son is holding a lantern, look at the direction, did you just come back from the outside?"
